In the fields of modern medicine, cosmetics and chemicals, Polyvinylpyrrolidone, as a high-performance polymer material, has been widely used due to its excellent solubility, film-forming properties, adhesion and biocompatibility. From solubilizers and tablet adhesives in pharmaceutical preparations to moisturizers and styling aids in cosmetics, PVP has become an indispensable and important raw material. In recent years, China's PVP industry has developed rapidly, not only meeting domestic demand, but also occupying an important share in the international market. This article will introduce the top five PVP manufacturers in China.
